.... as they surely will be. (Spectators have just been banned from sport for a month in Italy)

Will we get our season tickets refunded? I would assume so.

Will Sky and BT be allowed to show MORE matches? I would guess yes, again.

Gonna be weird, that's for sure.

Cue comments about how the atmosphere will probably be better than on a normal matchday... :lol:

Surely there would be a red button option with every game being live.

ideal reaction would be temporary permitted to televise 3pm games, on condition of being free to air. clubs need to keep the revenues and for most fans hope they'd see it as a donation to their club.

You got an idea of the thinking of some MPs at PMQs today with a question about Parliament and with 650 MPs how will they continue when the virus infects more. Johnson's usual non reply referred to large gatherings, so if 650 is a large gathering then everything is going to be closed down.

Personally I would prefer to see a limited attendance, as an example anyone with more than 500 loyalty points would be allowed to attend,

What a load of shit. Football once again showing it thinks it is more important than the rest of the world. If there is a pandemic on, with lock downs of public spaces why should a game be played behind close doors? What about players? Staff? St. John’s etc ? Still requires a bunch of people to go there and do their job.

Newcastle will still get 50k in to protest about the chairman and how they hate their team.
